This is the shocking moment that a three-year-old boy is run over by an SUV - and the driver then callously drives off.

But the young boy miraculously survives the horrendous accident, in which you can see him being literally crushed under the wheels of the 4x4.

The shocking footage was captured on CCTV in the Silvassa District of Dadar and Nagar Haveli in India, and shows Tejas Jaiswal playing in a car park close to his parents’ home.

But despite the crushing impact of the car, the toddler miraculously sits up.

Soon after the incident, crowds of locals gathered at the scene and took the boy to a local hospital, and informed his parents.

A doctor treating Tejas said: 'It is a miracle. The boy has no internal injuries but he has a fracture in one leg due to the immense pressure of the car. He should be up and running in a few weeks’ time.'

The driver has not been charged yet, but the local police have impounded the SUV. However, the boy's parents have not yet lodged a case with local police.

A police spokesperson said: 'We have been told that the driver, who ran over the boy, is related to the family and lives in the same neighborhood so they don't want to press charges.
